Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication, in particular to a large-scale antenna debugging method, a large-scale antenna debugging device and a large-scale antenna debugging computer device.
Background
In 5G and future 6G base stations, a large-scale Antenna, i.e., a Massive Antenna, is mostly used, a radio frequency part and an Antenna part are integrated in an AAU (Active Antenna Unit), and the AAU realizes beam forming of signals by controlling the amplitude and phase difference of each Antenna array element in an Antenna array, so that gain transmission is directionally improved, the spectrum efficiency of a cell can be greatly improved, and the capacity and the coverage are improved.
Specifically, the amplitude and phase difference between ports in the antenna array are increased by the influence of factors such as the welding process and the assembly error of the antenna, so that when a signal transmitted by the antenna array reaches a far field for beam forming, a large error exists between array elements, which causes the deviation of the direction and gain of a beam and causes the reduction of the overall performance of the antenna. Therefore, in the production and inspection processes of products, the amplitude and the phase of each port at each frequency point in the working frequency band of the antenna are tested, and the deviation value between the amplitude and the phase of each port must be within a specified tolerance range. Massive antennas usually use 64 or 128 or more ports to transmit signals, and the feed network is very complex and needs to be made of a PCB with a large area. Because the PCB area is big, the manufacturing process is difficult, and the cost is higher, design cost reduction with feed network into two parts in the design manufacturing process, simultaneously masive antenna also splits into two mutually independent first subarray and second subarray, and both assemble together and constitute masive antenna.
As shown in FIG. 1, the Massive antenna is composed of a first sub-array and a second sub-array, wherein P1-Pn is a feeding port of the first sub-array, and Q1-Qn is a feeding port of the second sub-array. The amplitude and phase values of the feeding ports of the two sub-arrays present certain distribution errors. It is very likely that the amplitude and phase deviation value between the P1-Pn ports of the first sub-array is within the tolerance range, and the amplitude and phase deviation value between the Q1-Qn ports of the second sub-array is within the tolerance range, but when the two are assembled together, the amplitude and phase deviation value between the P1-Pn ports and the Q1-Qn ports exceeds the tolerance range, so that the matching between the sub-arrays becomes a key step. The frequency points in the working frequency band of the antenna are numerous, the ports are numerous, the unqualified phenomenon can be reduced by correct debugging, the qualification rate of products is improved, the debugging workload is reduced, and the production efficiency is improved.

And finally, carrying out debugging and assembling according to the maximum or best matching computer database.
It should be noted that the technical terms related to the present invention include:
1. bipartite graph and weighted bipartite graph: bipartite graph is a special model in graph theory. Let G be an undirected graph, which is called a bipartite graph if a set of vertices can be divided into two mutually disjoint subsets X and Y, and two vertices of an edge set, connected by each connecting line, are one in X and the other in Y, and on the basis of a bipartite graph, such a bipartite graph is a weighted bipartite graph if these connecting lines are given certain weights.
As shown in the left diagram (a) in fig. 3, G is a bipartite graph, and the vertex set X { X1, X2, X3, X4} and the vertex set { Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4} are not intersected with each other, and 7 connecting lines are shared to constitute the edge set { X1Y1, X1Y4, X2Y1, X3Y2, X3Y3, X4Y3, X4Y4 }. As shown in the right diagram (B) in fig. 3, on the basis of the bipartite graph, a weighted bipartite graph is formed by adding a weighted value to each connection line.
2. Matching, maximum matching, complete matching and optimal matching: in a subgraph of the undirected graph G, any two edges in the edge set of the subgraph do not depend on the same vertex, the subgraph is called a match, and the subgraph with the largest number of edges in the subgraphs is called the maximum match of the graph. If in a match, each vertex in the graph is associated with a certain edge in the graph, the match is called a complete match, and the match with the maximum weight sum in the weighted bipartite graph subgraph is called a best match, namely the match with the maximum total weight is the complete match.
3. The Hungarian algorithm: aiming at the bipartite graph maximum matching problem, Hungarian Edmonds proposed a combinatorial optimization algorithm for solving the task allocation problem in 1965. The specific principle is as follows: finding a path from the bipartite graph, wherein the starting point and the end point of the path are points which are not matched yet, and the connecting lines which the path passes through are alternately matched, matched and unmatched next. After such a path is found, obviously, the number of unmatched connecting lines in the path is one more than that of matched connecting lines, so that the matching graph is modified, the matching relation of all matched connecting lines in the path is removed, the unmatched connecting lines are changed into matched connecting lines, the number of matched connecting lines is 1 more than that of the matched connecting lines, the operation is continuously executed until such a path cannot be found, and the maximum matching is obtained.
As shown in fig. 4, by using the hungarian algorithm, the maximum matching of the bipartite graph in the left graph (a) in fig. 3 can be obtained, and there are 4 connecting lines.
4. KM (Kuhn-Munkres) algorithm: the KM algorithm is used for finding the algorithm with the optimal matching of the weighted bipartite graph, and comprises the following specific steps:
(a) initialization feasible marker post
(b) Finding perfect matches using the Hungary algorithm
(c) If no best match is found, the feasible marker post is modified
(d) Repeating (b) (c) until the best match of equal subgraphs is found
As shown in fig. 5, a complete match can be found by using the KM algorithm, and 3 complete matches of the weighted bipartite graph (B) in the right graph of fig. 3 can be obtained, wherein the total weights are different, and the maximum total weight of the part C is the best match.
As shown in fig. 6, the computer application program takes the first sub-array number as the vertex number, establishes the subset X as X1 and X2 … Xn, takes the second sub-array number as the vertex number, establishes the subset Y as Y1 and Y2 … Yn, assigns the qualified match between the two as True, completes the establishment of the bipartite graph, and the computer application program obtains the maximum match of the bipartite graph through the hungarian algorithm, that is, the first sub-array and the second sub-array are matched as the antenna complete machine as much as possible. And storing the maximum matching information into a database.
One of the schemes of maximum matching can be obtained by the Hungarian algorithm, and if the first sub-array and the second sub-array are matched as an antenna complete machine as far as possible and the maximum deviation of the amplitude and the phase after matching is realized as little as possible, a KM algorithm is adopted.
As shown in fig. 6, the computer application numbers the first array number as the vertex number, establishes subset X as X1, X2 … Xn, numbers the second array number as the vertex number, establishes subset Y as Y1, Y2 … Yn,
and if the two are qualified, calculating the amplitude-phase weight by adopting a weight calculation formula, wherein the weight calculation formula is based on the principle that the amplitude and phase deviation is smaller and the amplitude-phase weight is higher. And if the amplitude and phase deviation value is 0, assigning a value of 10, recording as 1 when the judgment criterion is met, obtaining an amplitude weight and a phase weight by adopting linear scoring in the middle, and recording as an average weight by the average value of the amplitude weight and the phase weight. The above weight calculation method is merely an example, and may be adopted without being limited to this method. If the two can not be matched, the amplitude-phase weight value is marked as 0;
after the weighted bipartite graph is established, the computer application program obtains the optimal matching of the weighted bipartite graph through a KM algorithm, namely, the first subarray and the second subarray are matched as far as possible, and the maximum deviation of the total amplitude and the phase is small as far as possible after the antenna complete machine is matched simultaneously. And storing the best matching information into a database.
According to the invention, the product amplitude and phase information is stored, the combination relation of the subarrays is determined by the preset matching algorithm, and the production is arranged by an informatization means, so that the product qualification rate is improved, the debugging and measuring workload is reduced, and the production efficiency is improved.
